10 señales de que no es tu cuerpo, sino tu alma la que está cansada

A menudo confundimos las señales de sentirnos agotados, somnolientos todo el tiempo y desorientados con la necesidad de descansar.

We think that it’s our body that is tired, and we try to cure ourselves by hitting the gym or drinking some supplements to help us come back to life.

But, we forget that being tired doesn’t have to mean that we’re drained physically. Our soul can get tired, too. Even though we’re not able to see it, it doesn’t mean it doesn’t exist.

Nuestras almas tienen la misma capacidad de sobrecargarse con emociones negativas y estrés.

Y cuando eso ocurre, el alma necesita tiempo para repararse, como cualquier parte rota del cuerpo.

You should never ignore the signs warning you of your tired soul, and here’s how you’ll recognize them.

10 señales de que tu alma está cansada y necesita curación

Todo lo que quieres hacer es descansar

You find it difficult to get up in the morning even though you’ve slept enough. Your only wish is to stay in bed and rest all day because you feel drained.

Don’t confuse this with physical tiredness because it means your body is lacking energy, and your soul is the one that is tired.

You’re also no longer interested in the activities that you’ve enjoyed before and because of that you’re not willing to do anything that is not connected with resting.

The lack of energy you’re feeling is preventing you from doing anything.

Te sientes desorientado

Incluso cuando encuentras fuerzas para levantarte de la cama, enseguida empiezas a sentirte desorientado.

You sometimes forget to do things someone asks you or you go for something only to realize that you’ve forgotten what you wanted in the first place.

The feeling of being disoriented is overwhelming, and you find it hard to concentrate on anything you’re doing.

You’re extremely emotional

You feel like you’re either super sad or super happy, and no gray area exists here. You find it hard to digest your emotions, and you feel like you’re not in control of them.

Las cosas más triviales pueden alterarte fácilmente y también levantarte.

You feel like you’re drowning in your own body, and nothing can save you from the feeling of being helpless.

Te sientes solo todo el tiempo

Even when you’re among other people, you still feel lonely. You simply cannot indulge yourself in conversations like you used to do before.

El sentimiento de soledad permanece omnipresente digas lo que digas o hagas lo que hagas.

Y por eso a veces evitas salir con la gente, porque estas reuniones sólo te hacen sentir peor. Piensas que la mejor opción es irte a dormir, y esperar a que todo pase.

Se siente agotado físicamente

Esta es la más confusa.

When our souls are tired, we suffer some physical conditions as well, but this doesn’t have to mean that we need to heal our bodies instead of souls.

Cuando tu alma está cansada, te sentirás agotado físicamente porque estás falto de energía, y esto influye en el funcionamiento de tu organismo.

You will feel like you have overworked yourself physically even if you haven’t done anything.

You’re always on high alert

Te encuentras dándole demasiadas vueltas a todo y, mires donde mires, sólo ves consecuencias de posibles acciones.

You’re always on high alert and afraid of what might happen.

You find it impossible to relax and enjoy the movie or something you like doing because you’re overly stressed about everything.

Quieres huir de todo

Sientes que quieres hacer las maletas e irte lo más lejos posible hacia lo desconocido.

You’re not satisfied with anything going on in your life, and you’re not satisfied with yourself.

Crees que la felicidad está muy lejos de ti y que, hagas lo que hagas, nada cambiará.

Te esfuerzas por encontrar razones para levantarte por la mañana y hacer todas las tareas o ir a tu trabajo.

You’re not interested in helping others

When you see that someone needs your help, you don’t bother helping them—not because you don’t want to but because you feel like you need help, too.

Sometimes you feel so indifferent to other people’s sufferings that you don’t recognize yourself anymore.

It’s really hard for you to understand their wishes and desires because you’re too occupied with saving yourself.

No puedes olvidar el pasado

You find yourself living in the past or daydreaming about some events from your past. You cannot concentrate on the present and the things you’re doing.

Perhaps you’ve gone through a breakup or other event that left you emotionally scarred, and that is why you feel unable to let go of that.

Sigues buscando respuestas y razones de por qué sucedió algo porque no puedes aceptar las cosas como son.

No puedes dejar ir los que te decepcionaron o te hicieron daño porque quieres que se disculpen o te expliquen por qué lo hicieron.

You don’t feel loved

Nothing and no one can make you feel loved because you’re not in touch with your emotions.

You don’t understand what is going on around you and even if someone is showing you affection, you will not be able to recognize it.

And that is why you feel alone and like no one is able to understand what you’re going through.

Even though love seems miles away from you and the state you’re in, don’t lose hope in the better days that are about to come because they will.
